Wen Tiantian had fallen asleep on the sofa at some point.
From outside came the low sound of an engine.
Wen Tiantian was jolted awake.
When he opened his eyes, he found himself alone in the living room.
Footsteps came from the door.
She turned her head just in time to see Ji Jingchen striding in, the butler behind him, unhurried.
The other person also saw her, and their eyes swept over her from top to bottom.
Wen Tiantian stood up and checked the time.
It was already one in the morning.
Ji Jingchen took off his suit jacket and passed it to the butler. He slightly raised his eyes to Wen Tiantian.
"You're waiting for me?"
"Yes."
Wen Tiantian pulled at her wrinkled skirt and walked over.
Ji Jingchen lowered his eyes and undid the buttons on his cuff and tie. He undid the top two buttons on his shirt in one motion.
Only then did he look over.
It was as if he didn't want to see Wen Tiantian at all.
"What is it that makes you sleep like this on the sofa?"
He glanced at Wen Tiantian from top to bottom with a picky look in his eyes, and his voice sounded like he was looking for trouble.
Wen Tiantian didn't know what she had done to provoke him.
Didn't she wake up before Ji Jingchen came in?
She sneaked a glance at Ji Jingchen.
Forget it, she was already used to this person's temperamental and temperamental personality.
"I'm going to return this to you."
Wen Tiantian opened her palm and held out the necklace to him.
Ji Jingchen's gaze became serious as he stared at the necklace for a while. Then, he reached out his hand and took it.
His fingertips accidentally touched Wen Tiantian's soft palm. It was warm and soft.
Wen Tiantian felt an itch in her palm and quickly retreated.
Ji Jingchen's attention was completely focused on the necklace in his hands. With a gentle flick, the heart-shaped pendant that was originally broken was opened.
It looked exactly the same as before, and the two halves of the silver chain had been repaired.
Her technique was very good, to the point that she couldn't see any traces of it.
"It's been repaired."
Wen Tiantian raised her head slightly and straightened her chest.
"I fixed it."
Ji Jingchen raised his head and looked at her with a proud tone.
He held the necklace in his hand.
"You waited until now to give me this?"
Wen Tiantian smiled in embarrassment.
"Because I was afraid I wouldn't see you in the morning."
Deep in Ji Jingchen's eyes, there was a subtle change that was almost undetectable. However, his tone was still as difficult as usual.
"If you didn't sleep late in the morning, how come you didn't see him?"
He took the necklace and went upstairs.
Wen Tiantian heaved a sigh of relief. From the looks of it, Ji Jingchen seemed to be in a good mood.
Since she was going to stay here for a while, it was inevitable that she would meet Ji Jingchen.
He had been planning to avoid him, but from the looks of the situation these past few days, it was almost impossible.
Wen Tiantian quickly changed her method. Since she couldn't avoid the attack, she might as well face it head on.
Having dealt with Ji Jingchen before, if the matter were to be exposed in the future, he wouldn't make things too difficult for her since he had already repaired the necklace for her.
She had been frightened earlier, but after recovering from her shock, she quickly understood this logic.
From the looks of it, the first step was a success!
Wen Tiantian secretly made a gesture with her hand, walking towards her room with satisfaction.
On the other side, Ji Jingchen returned to the room.
When he came out of the shower and saw the photo necklace on the table, he couldn't help but think of a face.
He shook his head slightly, feeling somewhat helpless.
"It's not completely useless."
